in heian shodan, would one really step or lunge three times to block an attack. i think they are strikes and the third is a takedown when you turn into a downward block. what do you guys think?

thanks again,pers good stuff.thats what i am talking about moving swift wihout comprmising the technique.like in bassai dai ,three steps foward one swift step back. i can do the movements , but it does not seem to flow natural without effort ,my instructor says i think to much.

thanks for the advice. sounds like i need to improve my leg strength

hi everyone, i just wonder if anyone has a problem keeping your back foot planted to the floor when moving backwards in back stance.My back foot always moves before my hips do.just wondering if anyone had any suggestions or tricks that would help
